FAQs
Are Adidas Samba OG shoes suitable for running or intense sports?
While the Samba has roots as an indoor training shoe, the current OG models are primarily designed for everyday casual wear and lifestyle purposes. They are not intended for high-performance running or intense athletic activities.
How do I ensure the white leather stays clean?
Regular cleaning is key. Wipe the leather upper with a damp cloth and mild soap after use, especially if it gets dirty. Consider applying a leather protector spray to create a barrier against stains and water.
Can I wash my Samba OG shoes in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the leather, suede, and adhesives, altering the shoe's shape and integrity. Always clean them by hand following the care instructions.
Do I need to waterproof these shoes?
While the shoes are not fully waterproof, applying a high-quality water and stain repellent designed for leather and suede can significantly protect them from light rain and spills. This is highly recommended, especially for the white color.
Are Adidas Samba OG shoes true to size?
Adidas sizing is generally consistent. For your UK size 8, the shoes should fit true to size. However, foot shapes vary, so if you are between sizes or have wider feet, trying them on or consulting a size guide is always beneficial.
What kind of socks should I wear with these shoes?
For optimal comfort and to prevent odor, we recommend wearing breathable cotton or performance blend socks. Ankle-length or no-show socks are popular choices to complement the shoe's classic silhouette.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.
Leather shoes often require a 'break-in' period. Wear them for short durations around the house to allow the leather to soften and mold to your feet naturally.
White leather upper shows scuffs or dirt easily.
For light scuffs, use a clean, damp cloth with a small amount of mild white shoe cleaner or saddle soap. Wipe gently. For tougher marks, a specialized leather cleaner can be applied following product instructions.
Suede accents appear matted or dirty.
Use a specialized suede brush to gently brush the suede in one direction to lift dirt and restore the nap. For stains, a suede eraser or a small amount of dedicated suede cleaner can be used cautiously.
My shoes are wet after being caught in the rain.
Remove the laces and stuff the shoes with newspaper to absorb moisture. Allow them to air dry completely at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can damage the leather and suede.
Foot odor develops after extended wear.
Ensure you wear breathable socks. Remove insoles if possible and allow them to air out. You can also use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle a small amount of baking soda inside the shoes overnight.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting started with your Adidas Samba OG shoes is straightforward. Their inherent design also makes them highly compatible with various personal styles, but proper care is essential to maintain their pristine condition.
Setup
- Unboxing: Carefully remove your new Samba OG shoes from their packaging.
- Initial Inspection: Briefly check for any manufacturing imperfections. Familiarize yourself with the feel of the leather and suede.
- First Wear: Put them on and adjust the laces for a comfortable, secure fit. As leather can be stiff initially, a short break-in period is normal.

Care Instructions
Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your leather and suede Samba OG shoes:
| Area to Clean | Recommended Method | Tools |
| :-------------- | :------------------------------------------ | :---------------------------------------------- |

General Tips:
- Protection: Consider applying a water and stain repellent specifically designed for leather and suede before first wear and periodically thereafter.
- Drying: If shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain shape. Allow them to air dry at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to help retain their shape and prevent creasing.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use harsh detergents, bleach, or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the materials.
